Problem with printing barcodes to a Zebra printer via Smartform

[Former Member]

Hi

I am trying to create a printed label from smartforms, being directed to a zebra printer. The label must include a barcode.

Via oss notes 750002 and 750772 I have imported the LZEB2 device type.

In SE73 I have created a system bar code on the new technology.

In the smart form style, I create a character type with this barcode font.

The barcode prints okay and can be read when it has up to 10 characters.

However we need a long bar code of appoximately 22 characters.

I can find no supported barcode type which will let me write a barcode of this length

The max length in the smartform style for the barcode format is always coming up as 50mm which is too short.

I have tried with using a printer bar code prefix and suffix with the native zebra ZPI-II commands, attaching to command nodes on either side of the text node in the smart form, But this does not seem to work.

Any advice ?

Thanks

sounds like the variable containing the barcode data is too short...is it at least 22 characters long?

I have it working now, using one of the preloaded printer codes that came with the device.
